Episode 30: The Symbol of the Ouroboros
The ouroboros is one of our most mysterious and powerful symbols, denoting the simultaneity of life, subsequent endings and beginnings, death and rebirth, completion and totality, solar power and bravery, an encircling of the world... As an alchemical concept the ouroboros represented the circular nature of the alchemist's work, or what Jung interpreted as the integration of shadow, an evocation of man as "prima materia."
Join us in this episode where we immerse ourselves in the realm of the world-snake, and explore new ways to understand and work with this symbol, as a reminder of our totality.
